Science changes its story.

One of the challenges of putting faith into science is that it will change what it considers to be truth with excitement and flourish. The old truth is unceremoniously thrown out and the new "real" truth is crowned with certainty and authority.

The latest example has to do with the earth's magnetic field. Here is the article. Even though the scientist admit that a particular truth as it was presented before is now, "completely the opposite of what scientists had thought" as the article states, the new discovery seems never to be prefaced with the disclaimer or hedge, "unless we are completely wrong again."

Contrast this to the truth of God's word which NEVER experiences this breakdown of principles to make a "breakthrough."
